Trials--am I handling my trials well

I can honestly say that I am not.  I have been grumpy and snappy.  I know I need to work on this area of my life.  This is where I need the most work really.  I need to find the good in the trials the Lord has me walking through.  I have a big list of trials that I am dealing with.  Dh says part of the reason I am not handling things is that I have nothad time to adjust to our new blessing before our lives were turned upside down by numerous other things.  It will still be a couple weeks before there is any sense of normal around here.  Our baby was born by emergency c-section on Nov. 15.  I ended up with 9.5 inch incision, then on Thanksgiving I got an infection in my incision.  Then on Dec. 2 my best friend's 5 mo old baby went into the hospital.  She has been in the hosptial ever since with numerous issues.  Then on Dec. 6 we had an ice storm, then another on Dec. 7-11.  then on Dec. 14 it snowed 9.5 inches.  We have not had constant power since Dec. 10, when also got mastitis.  Today we are running on a generator, and i am so far behind on things that it is depressing me.  I have company coming in on Dec 23 and they will be here until Dec. 26 and then on Dec. 28 another set here until Jan. 2.  I have many things that need to be done before all of them come, but cna't with out electrcity.   I am just running on fume.  I am tired, achy and just out of sorts.  My dc know it and are feeding off of it.  Ugh, just a small sense of narmal would be nice.  When the power does come back on I am not going to know where to start.  Ok enough blubbering.  Maybe later I can look at this and find the joys and good that are going to come from this.
